"My husband has been trying to get ahold of someone in office behind his brother using his name with in a traffic stop a ticket was issued and we’ve been multiple times to this office and get told that my husband needs to do the work to prove it wasn’t him. Instead of just pulling in the officer at the scene or running some camera footage nothing has been done. Very un professional as a prosecutor to tell someone that."

"This system, this DA failed an innocent man. This DA should be ashamed of himself! There’s actual criminals in this town, horrible people, and they walk the streets everyday! Do some research into peoples cases before making such rash decisions!!!!!!!! Don’t just do it cause you can!!!!!!!!!"

"It is IMPOSSIBLE to get anyone at this office to respond to you, return calls, or answer emails. I am very disappointed with the dealings I’ve had with this office. It’s like they are on vacation every day. POOR IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT."
